For 32-bit kernels we probably should fix cpu_vmbits to 31.

#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
# ifndef cpu_vmbits
#  define cpu_vmbits cpu_data[0].vmbits
#  define __NEED_VMBITS
# endif
#else
# #define cpu_vmbits 31
#endif

To do for a later separate patch - minimize the sizes of all cpuinfo_mips
members; int is overkill for many members.

This overlaps with other allocations near the top - yes, we've been living
dangerous but with bottom up allocations a conflict was very, very unlikely.

Dealing with them in a sane way in the VMALLOC_END macro definition is hard,
so I suggest changing the definition to something like:

extern unsigned long vmalloc_end;

#define VMALLOC_START	MAP_BASE
#define VMALLOC_END	vmalloc_end

And initialize the value of vmalloc_end in something like the mm section of
arch/mips/kernel/traps.c:per_cpu_trap_init().

There you can also ensure the value of vmalloc_end is <= FIXADDR_START.

Finally probing can be used to fix yet another sin.  For 64-bit kernels
arch/mips/include/asm/processor.h defines TASK_SIZE:

#define TASK_SIZE       0x10000000000UL

This should turn into something like.

#define TASK_SIZE	(1UL << vmbits)

This is also why I sugget to keep vmbits as 31, not 32.  Hello S390 :-)

With my changes suggested above this would need changing to something like:

static inline void cpu_set_vmbits(struct cpuinfo_mips *c)
{
	if (__NEED_VMBITS) {
		write_c0_entryhi(0x3ffffffffffff000ULL);
		back_to_back_c0_hazard();
		c->vmbits = fls64(read_c0_entryhi() & 0x3ffffffffffff000ULL);

		return;
	}

	BUG();
}

I think a name like cpu_probe_vmbits() would be clearer.
